Anyone running Windows 8 out there with the latest Cisco VPN client? Same house, same local network, I can vpn to my ASA at work with Windows 7 just fine and access everything I need. Windows 8, I can connect to the ASA, but can't access anything on the remote network. Any thoughts?

Traditional VPN client connects me and then I can't get to any remote resources, but I stay connected. Anyconnect prompts me for username, password then I get the Failed to get configuration from secure gateway error. I have seen posts about people using the Anyconnect 3.0.xxxx with windows 8 and nothing on my problem, just a problem with the way the adpater is listed in the registry.

Hi! Here is a workaround found in internet, and it worked fine for me :

Just to update, the legacy Cisco VPN client (5.0.07.0440 for x64, 5.0.07.0410 for x86) is working for some people. You need to apply a small workaround as explained below –

· Open Registry editor by typingregedit in Run prompt · Browse to the Registry Key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SYSTEM\\CurrentControlSet\\Services\\CVirtA · Select the DisplayName to modify, and remove the leading characters from the value data upto "%;" i.e.

I am using a HP Envy x2 tablet/computer running a 32bit OS and this worked for me. I image this will work the same for regular tablet that do not come with keyboards you just have to be able to boot into the BIOS and turn of a feature.

Install the Cisco VPN client as you would any other program.

Next restart the computer and hit ESC to get a boot menu and log into the BIOS

I signed up just to post this extra step, because I could not find it anywhere on the net. I mean seriously.. Cmon cisco.

For those of you that have done the registry fix and you can get connected to VPN but not to any internal private network resources such as remote desktop when using windows 8 and connecting to a windows 7 machine.

Be sure to do the registry hack first if not done already.

You may not need to though, if the string was correctly set in the registry.

1) Disconnect from the VPN server if connected.

2) Click "Modify" icon in the VPN client for the connection you're having issues with.

3) Check to be sure that IPSEC over UDP\PAT is enabled.

4) Connect again to your VPN server, and then try to remote desktop again.
